Selah June let me dress her up for an Easter photo shoot. We put on her favorite dress that Grammy and Grandpa gave her. We put on our heels and our bracelet from Mimi.

We brushed our hair and fixed it so it was pretty.

And then we went outside to find pretty flowers to take pictures.

Right outside the door is a huge jasmine bush. It smells so good…

And out back were little tiny purple flowers.

And then we found lots of clovers.

But outlet favorite spot was on the log out front.

Jeremy and I have been taking Selah June to the park. This afternoon we took her to one off of Creighton. It was full of lots of things that were just her size. We were nearly the only ones there, and it was close to sunset. The weather was perfect, and we all had fun. She enjoyed having me swing next to her, and I enjoyed the fresh air. It was a bit of a feat climbing into the pirate ship with her, and of course she wanted out of it as soon as I finally made it in and got settled.

I did manage to get one silly face selfie.

I bought Selah Juney some new sneakers and some pink sparkly heels for Easter. She needed to put them on as soon as she saw them.

She wore them to get the mail. And she wore them to check her garden.

Who said heels had to be worn with dresses??

Selah June has been waking up in the middle of the night pretty regularly. Last night was no exception. Jeremy brought her to our bed and let her watch some Paw Patrol. Then he said, are you ready to go back to sleep? And she said she needed a band-aid. He said we’re all out of band-aids.  She whined for about 10 minutes and then said she needed to go back to bed — in her crib. So he took her down there and put her in bed. Then she cried. He said do you not want to be in your crib? And she said no. I was mad at you because you didn’t give me a band-aid. I want to sleep in your bed.

Sunday morning we cleaned everything up and headed back home. Jessica sept in the bed with us because the futon killed her back. All night long, Selah June rolled her way. It was an oven for the two of them. I slept GREAT!

I asked the kids if they enjoyed their trip to the river. I told them to give a thumbs up for the camera. You see how well this worked out…

We woke up looking forward to a big day playing at the river.

We opted for the beach access point closer to our little cabin…which was SO much easier to reach. It did have limited beach, but it was fun for a while and had shade for the adults.

She needed a nap in a big way, so after a short time playing with Satie and Bastian she started barking orders for them to get out of the water “RIGHT NOW!!!”

We promised to take them on an afternoon adventure to the convenient store, and each of them picked out a treat. Selah June picked out doughnuts… SURPRISE!!!!

What is a camping trip without time at the swimming hole? The kids had a ton of fun. Jessica brought bubbles. The kids loved blowing bubbles and watching them fly away in the wind.

We went for good drinks after our river adventure, and somebody crashed out.

Later in the afternoon the kids let me take their pictures on this tree. I think they enjoyed themselves…

We found an awesome little playground near the cabin. The slide was super fast. It would just shoot Sebastian Jones right out. Selah Juney went down it with Mommy a couple of times.

She also found a swing that she particularly liked and practiced her new flying technique. Sebastian found it to be pretty fun too.

We woke up the first morning at the cabin and took all our blankets out to the porch.
